Why is the Russell Group featured on the UK Education Guide website?
1 in 5 Higher Education students in the UK now attend a Russell Group university. The Russell Group generally represents the top ranked universities in the UK and all the Russell Group universities are featured in the rankings that we reference on the site.
The Russell Group also represents some of the oldest universities in the UK. Old doesn’t always mean the best and UK Education Guide is not suggesting there are not great universities that are not part of the Russell Group, but as long established universities, their reputation is especially trusted by employers.
All Russell Group universities are research-intensive and are committed to maintaining the very best research, an outstanding teaching and learning experience and unrivalled links with business and the public sector.
